My goals for this course is to learn more about and put into practice technology for helping children learn to become better readers without loosing the basic fundamentals of children knowing what a book is. I also want to learn more teaching strategies for spacial/deaf education students that sometimes cannot hear the sounds and words being pronounced. I am interested also on how these self assessments will happen and hope that they will give me an accurate idea of what I need to work on to become a better teacher.

I have to admit that with all my other classes and the amount of reading for this class and the others combined I am a little worried about completing all of the reading assignments.

Your goal to learn how to better teach and assess deaf students stood out to me, especially because we talked a little about assessing learners of English as a second langauge. Sign language has a totally different challege as the audio language that teaches rely so much on is not present. this forces teachers to rethink their approaches to teaching. I hope i learn more about this as well.
